Prince turned 50.
I’m not the biggest fan (I had my Prince moments in the past, though), but Phinn has more memories.

This blog went through one of the biggest changes in years when I updated everything below the surface from Movable Type 4 to WordPress. Until version 4 came out I was very happy what I could do with Movable Type, but the user experience of the latest version was incredibly bad. I decided to give a try and install WordPress and I have to say I’ve been very happy with it. Very easy to install, edit and use. I’m sure you can still find lots of things which don’t work as well they used to, but everything should be running perfectly before the weekend. There will be some “new” features available as soon as tomorrow, check back.
I’m troubleshooting like there’s no tomorrow, but if you find any problems or get any errors, please let me know. Geeky geek.

Got my 0,5 seconds of fame (at most!;) this morning when I saw that Time Magazine has referred to my entry of Justice’s Stress video. Nice from them – and a good article, too.
Late but heartly thank-yous to Turku party people and Diiva UG -posse for making a 3 year birthday party worth remembering and giving me a possibility of being there. The night was fantastic, the cellar absolutely one of the most intimate and friendly venues I’ve witnessed in Finland and Lank and Vertigo very warm and professional hosts with a great music taste. The guys are going to play in Oulu in a month or so, make sure to check them out if you’re in the area. Also thumbs up to Niska who played a rocking warm-up set with a good electro vibe. Very nice guy and a talent to keep an eye on.
I started my Diiva UG set with a bit more progressive and melodic sound which obviously wasn’t the hottest stuff for the cellar-like surroundings and I turned after a track or two to slightly more technoish and rough sound which seemed to be the thing. The crowd was on a birthday party mood and if you could see something through the enormous amount of smoke, they were smiles :) The tracks of the night would be Quivver – Surin (Lutzenkirchen remix), Freeflow 45 – PeakTime and Dennis Sheperd – Infinity. Thank You Turku & Diiva UG!
A very fitting and entertaining blog post about the electronic music culture.
Years ago, the joke was, ‘Everybody’s a DJ’, now it’s, ‘Everyone’s a producer’.
Anyone with a music MySpace page, a computer and a music program, can basically become an instant producer; they can also buy a flat screen and have an instant “studio”, woohoo.
Make sure to change AIM status to “in studio”, just to let everyone know you are hammering away in your bedroom, aka “The Studio”.
If there is one thing I am not, it’s a hater, so I hope that’s not what I come off as with anything I comment on or anyone I point out.
I’m just an observer, I call a spade a spade.
I love watching the success of others, I love seeing my friends’ progress, and I love to progress myself. […]

Ikävää, että en päässyt osallistumaan, mutta onneksi edes tiivistettyjä sisältöjä on julkaistu varsin tehokkaasti Musiikki ja Media -seminaarista.
Musiikkiala kaipaa kipeästi arvoketjun uudelleen arvioimista: vanhat uskomukset on hylättävä ja asiakaskokemus ja asiakassuhde nostettava kunniaan, todistivat Janne Airo ja Timo Poijärvi tänään musiikkialan toimijoille järjestetyssä Musiikki ja Media -seminaarissa.

Muutama Jaiku ja Flickr-kuva tapahtumasta.
Miikka a.k.a drS sent me a couple of oldskool Tampere flyers for the Flickr flyer collection. Awesome indeed, the collection includes now over 2000 flyers and electronic music related articles.
See the latest Tampere oldskool flyers, all Tampere flyers or the whole flyer collection.

Ilmainen seminaari: 16.5. klo 10.00 – 15.00
Sibelius-Akatemian auditorio, Töölönkatu 28, T-talo, 5.krs., Helsinki
Musiikin uudet ansaintamallit
Musiikkialan yritykset joutuvat nykyajan murroksessa miettimään ansaintalogiikan uudella tavalla. Tulovirtoja ankkuroidaan yhteistyösopimuksilla, mainosrahoituksella, keskittymällä syvemmin 360 asteen malliin ja jopa “maksa mitä haluat” -logiikalla. Uusien julkaisujen elinkaari on muuttunut lyhyemmäksi, käytettävät teknologiat kehittyvät huimaa vauhtia.
Mitä tulevaisuuden ansaintamalleja häämöttää edessä ja mitä on jo tapahtunut? Näkemyksensä asiasta antaa mm. vallankumouksellisen sosiaalisen levy-yhtiön Sellabandin toimitusjohtaja Johan Vosmeijer.
Päivän ohjelmassa Timo Poijärvi (Idean Enterprises) kertoo kuluttajakäyttäytymisen muutoksesta ja crowd sourcing -tapojen lisääntymisestä, jotka radikaalisti vaikuttavat perinteisen ansaintamallien toimintaan. Alan muutoksia puidaan yhteispaneelissa, jonka moderaattorina toimii Janne Airo (Playground Music Scandinavia).
Seminaari on maksuton mutta vaatii ennakkoilmoittautumisen ti 13.5. mennessä.

AnjunaBeats100 tour hits Helsinki this Saturday headlining Above&Beyond with a two hour set. I’ll be warming up the main floor for two hours 21:00-23:00, after which our beloved AnjunaBeats artist Joonas Hahmo will present his Sound of Saturday. After the main act DJ Poliisi finishes the night with some psy-trancey moods.
The second room will be hosted by Flinkki, Coma, Paul Easy and Nenna & Reb.
There’s also an afterparty available for those who couldn’t get enough. Clinic “intensive care” Afterparty takes place at 05:00 in Rose Garden, offering sounds from Easy Coma, Grin & Node, Milla Lehto and me.
More information available at Clinic website.
I’ve totally forgotten to share this: Heikki played and recommended me this track on a VERY early Sunday morning between Tampere and Helsinki when coming back from Hämeensilta Metaverse event.
I’m not a huge fan of file sharing, but these kind of not-to-be-sold bootlegs and non-profit tracks are just meant to spread around. And I’ll do my duty: Midlake – Roscoe (Beyond The Wizard’s Sleeve remix) (zShare link) is a fantastic track, I hope you love it as much as I do.
Imagine sitting in a quiet train wagon, completely exhausted, watching the sunrise and listening to this. It just hits you.
Stop the press. iTunes Music Store has Electronic Music Sale.
Metaverse Tour Closing video from Laserpoint has been viewed already over 20000 times on YouTube. I would have never guessed DJ Orkidea could press refresh THAT many times ;) Anyway – it’s great that the clip has reached so many people – here’s the same video in hi-res format (179MB) in case you’re interested having a digital copy in your own archive:
